The current PCIe driver assumes PERST# is asserted when probe() is invoked.
The reasons are as follows:

(1) One Broadcom SOC (7278) causes a panic if the PERST# register is
    written during this time window.

(2) If PERST# is deasserted at Linux probe() time, experience and QA
    suspend/resume tests have shown that some endpoint devices fail if the
    PERST# is pulsed (deasserted => asserted => deasserted) quickly in this
    fashion, even though the timing is in accordance with their datasheets.

(3) Keeping things in reset tends to save power, if for some reason the
    PCIe driver is not yet present.

Broadcom STB and CM SOCs bootloaders always have PERST# asserted at
probe().  This is not necessarily the case for the 2711/RPi bootloader,
so, for 2711/RPi SOCs, do what Raspian OS does and assert PERST#.

It would probably make sense to remove that [1] link entirely, to match
the reference removal between v4 and v5.

Re subject, what does the patch actually *do*?

It looks like it "asserts PERST# on BCM2711", which I think would be
more informative than "don't assume 2711 bootloader leaves PERST#
asserted".

Does this link go with something above?  "[1]" isn't mentioned above.
I did look at that message, but the connection to this patch isn't
obvious to me.

Sorry, I noticed after sending this that you and Cyril have already
taken care of this.

Do you have any other feedback on the other commits?  I can change the
subject message as you like  and the remove the stale footnote you and
Cyril noticed, and submit V6.

Thanks,

Nope, and there's really no hurry.  Trivial stuff like this can be easily
done when merging.  I think two postings per week is plenty.  Each new
posting takes work to look at, so it's a win to wait a bit and
accumulate non-trivial updates before reposting.
